What an unproductive Sunday.

I’m so disappointed in myself.

 

I have not practised cello for 2 days.
My essay is just 1/4 done.

How ill-disciplined.

 

My brain just refused to do anything now, though my heart is urging it to.

Why can’t the both of them ever cooperate.

Today pastor talked about something which I have been thinking about recently, ie waiting.

W = Withstand (holding on to your ground in the face of extreme pressure)

A = Anticipate (Expectation is the atmosphere for miracles!)

I = Intercede (Pray and not lose heart)

T = Trust (Acknowledge the lordship of God)

 

I guess in this fast-paced society, nobody likes to wait. We all want instant gratification.

However, waiting is so essential and a phase everyone has to go through to achieving anything great.

I came up with an analogy a few years ago – the Little Mermaid analogy! =))) Remember how she had to wait until she was at the right age to ‘see the world’? Hearing her sisters blabbered on the wonderful things they saw didn’t help at all.

Still she HAD TO wait. If you remember the ending, it was certainly a worthwhile wait.

 

Waiting also trains us to trust in God’s timing. He is never too early and never too late. Time is in His hands. :)

However, it doesn’t mean that we should just sit around and wait for the promises. Faith is a verb, it is never passive.

So keep doing what it takes to achieve our dreams while waiting patiently for them to come to past. =)
